American Football- Show up to the Big Show

Baseball can claim to be USA’s national sport but American Football can trump it in plenty of other areas. For starters, it’s the most watched professional league in the world in terms of the average number of spectators who flock to a regular game with a barely believable figure of almost 70,000 per match. More impressive still, is the fact that no one-off annual sports match can compete with the NFL’s blue-rib band annual event: the Superbowl. It’s highly unlikely that any single match contested every year generates as much Media attention and TV revenue as that one.

It originally evolved as a cross between football and rugby but these days it can be said to be one of the most tactically complex sports in the world. That’s due to the pre-rehearsed plays making up a team’s playbook, the attention to detail regarding the role of each player and the huge roster of players whereby each individual has a highly specialized and specific role within the matchday squad.

And it’s this tactical battle of wits between coaches/General Managers and the individual battles within opposing players that really catch the imagination of the public. As the Al Pacino character said in the film ‘Any Given Sunday’, American Football is a game won inch by inch. And that’s also what makes it such a fascinating prospect to bet on in the Betsson Sportsbook. 

It’s one thing predicting who will win a particular match but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. On Betsson you can also bet on numerous handicaps, the total number of points a team will score and on the individual performances of certain players. Once the Superbowl comes around you can also try your luck on the numerous Specials markets.

And for those who love watching the talent of tomorrow coming through, Betsson also offers odds on NCAA College Football.
